It looks like you meant to post this URL: http://www.forumplanet.com/planetbattlefield/desertcombat/topic.asp?fid=6547&tid=1232322&p=2 The problem is, that link will just redirect you the forum index.

You should be able to just double-click the "BFServerManager.exe" file and configure your server (be sure to save your settings). Then, hit the "Start" button (with the dedicated server console window closed), and the server should start. Make sure you're using the following file...

1) Yes. 2) That's the dedicated server window (the server's running). If you press the tilde (~) key, you can enter commands. If you want an easier way to configure it, along with remote administration, visit http://www.blackbagops.com.

ipconfig /release That may or may not work, however.

"We highly recommend Battlefield servers to be run on dedicated server platforms. Currently, the best performance is on a machine with the following specifications: 8-player WinOS/800Mhz processor/256MB RAM/ADSL connection 16/32-player WinOS/1Ghz processor/256MB RAM/T1 connection...

To play regular Battlefield, you need the BF CD in the drive.

You only have to worry about this if you're behind a firewall. If so, you have to specify what kind.

Did you download the full 1.45 patch or the incremental? If you downloaded the incremental, I suggest uninstalling the game, deleting your Battlefield folder, and then reinstalling. Also, make sure you have all the latest driver and system updates.

Do you have all the latest driver and system updates?

Does it happen if you close all the windows or send them to the system tray before playing, too?

Uninstalling, deleting your Battlefield folder, and then reinstalling should do the trick.
